Speaking of Pittsburgh an inordinately high number of the non-Steelers fans, well 2, have told me they fancy them for the upset tonight. I wish I had their faith!
I like the Pats, they're a well run, clean organisation so the only thing you can hate on is their success. They should have won that game too, Brady was off all night and losing 3 fumbles and an INT which went directly for 24 points - thats just strange all capped off by Vinatieiri missing an easy FG.
What a game, what an incredible game. I was at the most emotional I have ever been during a Steelers game. Watched it in Buskers, was unreal, so many highs and lows, especially in that final quarter. One of, if not the, most exciting games I've ever witnessed (please note I didn't see the Rose Bowl:D ).
And the bonus is it puts me to 2/3 on the weekend with the Panthers leading.
What a weekend!!! Exactly why everyone loves the play offs. Was 3/4 myself (thought the Pats would win)
Cannot wait until next week...
Panthers - Bears game was excellent.
I'm beginning to think Peyton Manning is the next coming of Dan Marino. He could well end up with every passing record there is in the book but absolutly nothing to show for. He only won 1 SEC title in school and no national championship despite holding over 40 passing records when he left. He went 0-4 against Florida and never won the big games in college.
Now as a pro New England became his Florida. They always had his number and when the path eventually looked clear he stumbles, at home, on turf, to a team they dismantled earlier in the season. Now Pittsburgh played well but they had home advantage all the way and would have played Denver for the 3rd year running in the AFC Championship, they annihilated them the past 2 years in the playoffs. Now his huge cap number hampers signing both Edge and Reggie Wayne, it may even mean both go. He criticised his OL but his cap number may mean it cant be improved through FA. If wayne goes them Harrison is getting on and the defense need alot more work than they thought. this may have been his best chance to get to the SB in his career.
the bronco's and steelers scuppered most peoples predictions here,what a field goal miss from colts!
Ended 3/4 for the weekend. Up to 5/8 now, is someone keeping track of the overall scores?
panthers looked good alright. steelers/colts was one of the best games i'd ever seen, who'd hgave thought Vanderjagt would have missed that field goal? i know it was a high pressure situation but he's the most accurate kicker in the NFL's history for christs sake..
Roethlisberger's tackle after the Bus's fumble was top class too, if he didnt make that it was good night irene.
BTW who was that new presenter guy last night? Bring back Kevin Cade!!!
He dos it the odd time. Also does the NFL Europe programmes.
Big Ben's tackle was one of the plays of the weekend. If Watson's tackle of champ Bailey had've resulted ina touchback, that would've been

At least I'm not last anymore!:)
Was a great weekend all right. Typical play-offs with some surprises. It won't be too easy pick winners either this weekend, but here's what I think anyway:
Sunday, January 22nd:
Pittsburgh Steelers at Denver Broncos 8:00 p.m. (Pittsburgh)
Carolina Panthers at Seattle Seahawks 11:30 p.m. (Seattle)
I'm going to go with Kerry Blue on this one so it's
Steelers to beat Broncos
Seahawks to beat Panthers
I'm going for the Bronco's over the Steeler's and the Seahawk's over the Panther's.
Broncos and Panthers
